Add an Audio Clip or Recording
Main Uses
In teaching, an audio clip is often provided to learners as
- a sample to illustrate a sound or pronunciation for a communication course, language learning course, or a music course
- an alternative format of content, for example, supplementing a text copy
A more advanced use is to provide a tool for learners to record a clip by themselves and listen to it. This is useful for learners to practice and review their own pronunciation and communication skills.
1. Upload an audio clip for learners
Example
In this example, an instructor uploads an audio clip for learners to listen to. As well, an Accordion object can be added below it to provide a copy of the transcript (see the Accordion page).

2. Record an audio clip directly
Example
In this example, learners can record their audio clip, play it back, and download it. It is useful for some practices in courses teaching language, communication skills, and presentation skills.
